Four Paws Park Fenced Dog Park

Four Paws Park is a dedicated fenced off-leash dog park inside Denis Morrissey Park, at the corner of Montacute Road and St Bernards Road in Hectorville. The single reason to make the trip: a fully fenced space where your dog can run off-leash at any hour of the day or night, backed by the broader park's grass, shade, and facilities.

The rules. Off-leash is permitted inside the fenced area only. Dogs must remain under effective voice control at all times, and the space is maintained by Campbelltown City Council. Access is open 24 hours, so you set the schedule.

What is there. The fenced off-leash zone has bark and leaf litter surfacing rather than grass, with grassed areas just outside the fence. The setting is shady and natural, sitting next to a creek. Within the wider Denis Morrissey Park you get picnic tables, barbeque grills, a children's playground nearby, a 600-metre walking path around the area, and accessible public toilets.

Getting there. Off-street parking is accessed via St Bernards Road. If you are taking the bus, routes run along both St Bernards Road and Montacute Road. The street address is the corner of Montacute Road and St Bernards Road, Hectorville SA 5073.

Crowd timing. Expect the most dogs on Monday mornings, Monday evenings, and Wednesday through Friday afternoons. Weekends are generally manageable, and Sunday evenings tend to be the quietest.

For a calm session, aim for a Sunday evening or a weekend slot outside peak hours. Four Paws Park suits dogs that are reliable off-leash and owners who want a quick, properly fenced run without leaving the suburbs.
